Cam Link Pro — Setting Up Multiview with Google Meet

The following article is for a product that is now considered Legacy (EOL) status. Because of this, the information below may not match what is possible with current Elgato hardware and software.

This guide will go over how to setup Cam Link Pro and Multiview with Google Meet 

 


Requirements


 

Cam Link Pro installed in a desktop PC

  • Setup guide

4K Capture Utility 1.7.4 or newer installed

 


Setup Steps


 

1) While on the Google Meet homepage navigate up to the top right hand corner and find the Settings, as indicated by the cog icon.

4) Once you’ve selected the video input,  you can view the camera preview in the box to the right.

 


Setting Up Multiview


 

With Multiview selected as the camera input to Google Meet, you can show up to all four inputs of Cam Link Pro at the same time through the different Multiview layouts. 

 

Configuring Multiview can be done in two ways:

  • 4K Capture Utility in the Cam Link Pro settings
  • If you have a Stream Deck, by using the Cam Link Pro plugin 

If you are not looking to use Multiview, you can select any of the other HDMI inputs in the list to enable that HDMI input as your camera.
